About This Home
As of December 2020Fantastic and rare live/work space balances your 2020 work-life challenge with light and beauty! Fully separated levels let you leave workday cares behind. Yet, so stunningly crafted you’ll want to nest and entertain even during off hours. The upstairs floor hosts two bedrooms, living area, kitchen and full bath. High ceilings flood sunlight through skylights and clerestory windows. A generous enclosed patio nearly doubles the entertaining area. The expansive lower level space has great walls for art, theater or display. It's fitted with an ADA bathroom, stubbed out for an additional work/entertaining sink, and offering sidewalk entry. Tension cables reduce the need for nails when artwork is frequently changed. This open space easily sections off loft-style for a multitude of functions. Well-placed windows tucked toward high ceilings keep much of the space private from the street. This lower sanctuary culminates in a tranquil private garden. Featured artist: jessicabbottwilliams.com
